Is it possable to install a tach on my cb250?? -----Original Message----- Date: Sunday, February 21, 2010 6:26:36 pm To: [email protected] From: "Angela Kennedy" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] Re: Installing a Tachometer
I've needed a repair on mine since I've had it but haven't been in a real hurry to fix it or replace because of cost and just not knowing how to do it. Just been playing it by ear, literally. Would like to fix it as opposed to replacing the whole tach.
